Reference

ABSOLUTE CALCULATION, P4 = 0¤

For flows that can be calculated by the equation:

q = (2/3)1.5 x g0.5 x C x Cp x b x h1.5

where :

q = flow rate

C = a function of h and L

 

g = gravitational acceleration

 

 

b = crest width

Cp = a correction factor as a function

 

h = head

of h and p applied to C

RATIOMETRIC CALCULATION, P4 = 1¤

 

For flows that can be calculated by the equation:

 

q = qcal x C/Ccal x Cp/Cpcal x (h/hcal)1.5

 

where :

q = flow rate

 

 

qcal = flow rate at maximum head

 

 

h = head

 

hcal = maximum head

C = discharge coefficient for head

Ccal = discharge coefficient for maximum head

Cp = correction factor for C

Cpcal = correction factor for Ccal
